Crawl space humidity repair in Gaithersburg, MD

Steven and Linda have lived in their Williamsport, Maryland home for the past 5 years. Over time, they started noticing major comfort issues inside the home. In the winter, the floors were freezing cold, and in the summer, the house became hot, humid, and smelled musty.

They knew something peculiar was going on, but they couldn’t figure out the source. They tried sealing doors with foam, covering windows, and doing everything they could upstairs - but nothing worked.

Finally, they decided to look literally beneath their feet and checked their crawl space. What they found explained everything. The crawl space was exposed dirt, barely covered by old plastic, the insulation in the floor joists was falling down as seen in the before photo, and the vents were wide open.

After seeing the condition of the crawl space, they Googled “crawl space repair in Gaithersburg, MD” and Fortress popped up. They gave us a call, received a free estimate from Matt, and Pete was out just days later installing the solution you see in the after photo.

Now, they no longer complain about harsh winter floors or summer humidity, and they’re even starting to notice a subtle decrease in their electric bills as well.
